Wellbeing

There must be a term to describe the emptiness and sense of loss that follows the end of the Olympic Games. I’ve been captivated by every moment of the Paris Olympics, often watching in sheer disbelief at what the human body can achieve. I never imagined I’d become a fan of skateboarding and BMX, but now I’m a convert! 

What really stood out to me in these sports was the camaraderie and genuine joy the athletes displayed, regardless of their rankings. We’ve all witnessed the absolute joy and heart-wrenching heartbreak that comes with winning and losing at this level. We’ve seen athletes overcome severe injuries and setbacks to achieve personal bests. My favourite moment of the Games was the medal presentation for the Women’s Floor Routine. Simone Biles, arguably the greatest athlete in the world, finished second to a Brazilian athlete, and what followed is described in the excerpt below. Imagine the difference it would make if we all chose to lift each other up every day, without expecting anything in return—simply because we can.
